Jamie Oliver searches for next face of cocktails

Jamie Oliver is calling for professional and amateur bartenders to record their cocktail-making skills on video for the chance to be “the new face of online cocktail mixing”.

Jamie Oliver is searching for the next online cocktail star with his Drinks Tube competition

Launched through the new Drinks Tube channel, Jamie Oliver’s Search for a Cocktail Star with Bacardi is encouraging cocktail enthusiasts around the world to upload a video of themselves presenting their own drink to YouTube.

A judging panel comprised of drinks experts and the Drinks Tube team will select 10 semi-finalists to shoot a new cocktail using two products from Bacardi’s range.

TV chef Jamie Oliver will then select five finalists to go through to a public vote on the Drinks Tube channel.

The winner will be given an all-expenses-paid trip to London, plus a range of Jamie Oliver-themed prizes including a cocktail masterclass with fellow Drinks Tube presenter Simone Caporale.

Entries can be made through the Jamie Oliver website.
